...tiny vessel or the thumping triad notes of Darth Vader's theme but a grand, sweeping piece that is reminiscent of the Indiana Jones films. Mark my words: the opening scene of the film, judging simply from the music, will have some sort of advancing army or caravan, be it droid, human or beast, across a plain or desert (or maybe through a city). Following the main title track is the surprising appearance of a chorus, something that will maintain a constant presence throughout the soundtrack.

She is a big, wide, powerful woman with an amiable, unfooled expression and a finger-in-the-light-socket aurora of curly brown hair.
